Vintage Tractor Project
The Club has started the restoration of a 1962 Massey Ferguson 35 tractor. A group of local ‘Mechanical Volunteers’ have started work on the tractor and it is hoped to have it ready for St Patrick’s Day.
There will be a lot of work in this project and a lot of parts will be need for the tractor.
It is hoped to get some of the parts sponsored for the tractor.
If anyone would like to sponsor a part for the tractor, no matter how small, they should contact Club Chairman Dessie Sheridan on 0879434280 or any Club member.
When the tractor is completely restored it will be raffled to help with club funds.

Connacht Championship Semi Final
The first team bowed out of the Connacht Championship on Sunday after being beaten by Davitts of Mayo in the Semi-final on a scoreline of 1-12 to 0-12.
For the Gaels this was a first half best forgotten but in the second half they showed why they have been so successful this year.
Davitts got off to a great start and raced into a half time lead of seven points.
The second half was much better for the Gaels and they played some great football and but for some poor finishing could have won the game.
Although disappointed with the result, the large crowd of Gaels supporters were very proud of their team.

Senior League v Aughawillan
The first team had another good win over Aughawillan in Bundoran on Sunday.
This win means that the Gaels have completed the Senior League of 2011 unbeaten.
This is a fantastic achievement and they are now in the Senior League Final.
The hard work and commitment of the management and all the lads all during the year has been fantastic.
This particular game was as tough as any they have played during the year. In the first half Aughawillan played well and coped with most of what the Gaels could throw at them.
The Gaels missed a number of chances, but still went in five points ahead at the break.
Aughawillan started the second half well but the Gaels gradually took control and finished strongly.
A well worked goal from Blaine Mulligan capped another good Gaels performance.
Final score Melvin Gaels 1-14 Aughawillan 0-7.
The Club would like to thank Bundoran Club for allowing us to use their facilities once again. Bundoran have helped us out a number of times this year and we are grateful to them.

Connacht Intermediate Club Championship
Melvin Gaels 2-21 Coolaney/Mullinabreena 0-07
The win over Coolaney/Mullinabreena turned out to be very comfortable despite the shaky start by the Gaels.
After going behind in the first few minutes of the game the Gaels took control and never looked like losing. When they went into the break eight points ahead, playing against a strong breeze, the result never looked in doubt.
All through the game the Gaels put over some great scores. ‘Man of the Match’, Emlyn Mulligan, converted an early penalty for the Gaels first goal and the second goal came from the very the close runner up for Man of the Match, Peter Mc Gowan.
This is a great achievement for the Gaels. The Community and the many supporters who travelled on Sunday are very proud of these lads.
Well done to Billy, Brian and all the panel and everyone who worked so well on the day.

Senior League v Glenfarne/Kiltyclogher
On a very wet afternoon the Gaels first team took on neighbours Glenfarne/Kiltyclogher in the second last game of the Senior League in Blacklion.
Despite the very damp conditions the pitch was in excellent condition. The Gaels took control from the start and scored some excellent points and finished first half leading by 0-11 to 0-1. The second half was a closer affair and Glenfarne/ Kiltyclogher scored 1-5 to the Gaels 0-5.
Nevertheless the Gaels were worthy winners in the end on a scoreline of 0-16 to 1-6.
Well done to all concerned.

Another defeat for the Seniors
The Seniors were beaten by Sean O’Heslins on a scoreline of 2-04 to 1-10 on Saturday evening in Pairc Sean.
The Gaels were never in the game in the first half and went in at the break two points behind. This could have been worse if Gareth Phelan had not pulled off two great saves.
Having had a player sent off (Colm McGowan) the Gaels were always going to have difficulty getting anything from the game.
Nevertheless the Gaels put in a much better performance in the second period and went into the lead halfway through.
Once again it was the same old story, the Melvin Gaels players could not get the scores they needed and Sean O’Heslins got the all important goal which came from a 45 which found its way to the net.
Overall the performance from the Gaels in both games was not good enough.
Minors Going Well
The Gaels Minor team are going well in the Championship, drawing with Dromahaire in Melvin Park in a game played in terrible conditions and getting a very good win in Annaduff last week.
This week they take on Leitrim Gaels in Melvin Park.
Good Luck to all the lads and their mentors.

No Joy in First Game
The Seniors finished up losing to Mohill by three points on Saturday evening in Pairc Sean.
They performed reasonably well in the first half and were unlucky to go into the break a point behind, thanks to a late goal from Mohill. In the second half things seemed to go all wrong and the Gaels just could not put the ball over the bar.
Five points in any game is not good enough and things will have to improve greatly if they hope to progress any further in the Championship.
It will be a tough assignment again on Saturday evening against Sean O’Heslins.
Good luck to all the players and mentors.
Throw in for the game is 7.30pm.
Junior Championship Begins
On Monday at 2.30pm the Juniors take on Gortletterragh in Drumshanbo in the first game of the Junior Championship.
Good luck to all the lads and Peter, Aiden and John who have put in a lot of work with the Juniors this year.
